Residents of Bishop Monkton near Ripon took photographs and kept dairies about life under lockdown.

A small village in North Yorkshire has launched an online photo exhibition of life under lockdown.The "Images of Isolation" exhibition depicts villagers taking up new hobbies and helping out neighbours.

One contributor described having video calls with her ill father in the local care home as restrictions ended visits. In her diary entry she wrote that by the time she was allowed face-to-face visits again "it was was too late"."Soon he gave up drinking and now I'm sitting, allowed from compassion at his bedside in my hazmat kit, waiting for him to give up breathing in gloves and masks and aprons, no touching, no closeness."The images were originally shown in an exhibition in the village in 2020 organised by the Local History Group.
